Imagine you have a toy car, and your friend has a candy bar. You both want what the other has, but how do you decide who gets what? Money helps us trade things easily, like using coins or paper instead of trading toys directly. It’s like having a secret code that lets everyone agree on value.
Examples
- You give your friend $1 for a candy bar instead of trading your toy car.
- Your mom buys you lunch with $5 from her wallet.
- You save up $10 to buy a new pencil.
